Test-setup

Vote:
 

Hi,

I'm new to Episerver and want to setup a test-environment. Current setup:

Windows7
SQL Server 2012 Express
.NET framework 4.5
The protocols for Shared Memory, Named Pipes and TCP/IP are enabled (SQL)
My login (in SQL) has the sysadmin role

- but when I try to install the EpiServer Visual Studio Extension, I recieve an error. The log:

The error log is:

- maybe someone here have an idea? I should have all the correct applications/setup?
Best wishes,

Hi, I am not sure if they have upgraded the EPiServer Extension for Express but they release a new version that is compatible with vs2013 on Visualstudio gallery. You could try to download it again from this website or please report this as a bug. Sadly the extensions is not the same for express and the full version.

If it is only for test I would sugest you install the full vs and use the trial version since it is available for 90 days. Everything is working ok with that version.

I ran in to the same problem.

My solution was to uninstall VS 2013 Express for web and install VS 2012 Express for web.

Thank you Henrik! This one worked for VS 2013 Express for web.

Seems it is not a searchable download. How did you find it?

There is a link to it in the information about the plugin (http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/4ad95160-e72f-4355-b53e-0994d2958d3e).
